About our New Aggressive TransUltra™ Paper Tabs

Waferseals.com has just released a brand new product. The new Aggressive TransUltra™. TransUltra™ Paper Tabs with Aggressive Adhesive have been specifically designed for difficult to adhere to, digitally printed mailing pieces and with glossy surfaces. The adhesive is a tackified acrylic with better initial tack and "quick stick" atributes than standard acrylic adhesives. The appearance of standard translucent tabs can often be objectionable on these pieces, causing frustration when booklets arrive with visible tabs marring their appearance. TransUltra™ tabs are barely noticeable when applied to most mailing pieces. All customers using these new tabs will also be pleased to find that these tabs eliminate the frustration and damage caused by attempting to open booklet covers that use clear tabs without perforations. These new TransUltra™ Tabs open with ease and without tearing the cover.

About Clear Flex Poly Tabs / Used in Packaging

There are many different manufacturers of Clear Flex Poly Tabs but, all clear tabs are not the same. Waferseals.com has developed a Trouble Free Clear Flex Tab that eliminates the most common problems associated with clear tab application. We use a 3 mil clear flexible polyolefin 3 mil is the correct rigidity for fast tab application. We also avoid fracturing the liner when die cutting to eliminate web breaks when tabbing.

Clear Flex Poly Tabs are ideal for packaging.
